A VIDEO looking forward to Bradford district ‘reopening’ in the coming months has been produced.

The film features an array of people – from celebrities such as panto star Billy Pearce and sports figures to business owners and ordinary members of the public – talking about their anticipation as lockdown restrictions are set to ease this spring and summer.

The video has been released as part of the Sparkling Bradford winter campaign, spearheaded by a partnership including Bradford Council.

Councillor Sarah Ferriby, the council’s executive member for healthy people and places, said: “This winter the Sparkling Bradford campaign has been focused on showcasing how people across the district can still support their local communities and businesses online and within the lockdown restrictions. It’s been an incredibly difficult winter period for many – and this video just shows how much people are looking forward to getting back out there when we can do so safely and really enjoy the brilliant variety of shops, restaurants, bars and leisure facilities available across the district.”
